12 Volt Man

The Honky Tonk line was basically developed from Fiddler lines. Fiddler's Ace is probably the most notable Fiddler dog.

"Lola" eh? Does she walk like a woman and talk like a man? Hang out where the champagne tastes like cherry cola? Dang it! Now I can't get that song out of my head. Seriously: Nice looking pup! Greg J. That song is what scares me about the name "Lola". I don't need a cross dressing Pointer :P My wif...

You and my Son may be on to something there.

You need to keep an eye on your assistant at all times. I just caught him getting ready to go work the dog.

12 Volt Man

Here's a few pictures of my new pup Lola. She's only been here a few days, just getting the feel of things. I have high hopes for this one. It's going to be fun working with a pup again. I feel it's a good thing to let a young pup have a couple of birds to do whatever they want with. Helps them get ...

12 Volt Man

Nice looking dogs. Pepper is gorgeous. Jack has some serious style and intensity. Great work!

12 Volt Man

I like them all, but I gotta go with chukar on this one.

12 Volt Man

a dropper is an pup from a cross breeding. GSP and Pointer or Pointer and Setter etc... Usually an accident, but there are cases where it is alleged to have been done on purpose to bring different qualities in to a breed.

12 Volt Man

I wouldnt have dare said it til now...but.I heard Blackhawk was half dropper...Anyone else? I have seen pictures of some tri-colored Pointer pups that were sired by Blackhawk. Could be "the old genetics from the original dogs used to create the breed" blah blah blah. Nah..... something is up there....

12 Volt Man

Yeah, should have explained more. I have a buddy in OK right now who can bring the pup the rest of the way to Utah. This is just phase one of getting this pup.

I think we've got it figured out though. Thanks!

12 Volt Man

I thought it was worth a shot asking.... Is anyone traveling through South Eastern MO. (Cape Giradeau) to OK. (Big Cabin) in the next few weeks. I need a pup picked up and dropped off at Ronnie Smith's place in Big Cabin, OK by the end of June. I have a buddy staying at Ronnie's till then and he can...

12 Volt Man

Great discussion. A lot of my favorite dogs have been mentioned here. I have been thinking for a long time about getting a pup out of Attitude's High Finance. I really like the high head Fiddler style that comes through in the Honky Tonk Dogs. I know of a dog owned locally that is a direct son of Bu...

12 Volt Man

I may be wrong, but I thought that Steve Chang was only into NSTRA. He posts here from time to time. Good guy.

12 Volt Man

I would like to get one of those at some point. Looks like a useful and fun tool.

12 Volt Man

That should be a fantastic pup. There are several litters I have looked hard at out of Fibber. Keep us posted on the progress.

12 Volt Man

Love that high headed point! Great looking pack o' dogs you are getting.

I have thought I would like a pup out of Attitudes High Finance.

The new little girl looks like a nice one too.

12 Volt Man

I like this forum. Grant has done a great job. I don't post here as much as I used to and should.... and will. Thanks for making a refuge spot for us. I have set up a local Utah bird dog forum that we can use for the time being. If it catches on we'll keep it going. Still messing with stuff, but her...

12 Volt Man

We are working on a private forum which should have the same topics with a few modifications. I'll post more when I know more. It won't be a dog specific forum. More like what we had.

12 Volt Man

Hang in there guys. The anti's won this time. I am dissapointed that the chief of the DWR would cave in to an anti hunting group so easily. It wasn't the only issue, but it was the straw that broke the camels back. Cory really went to bat for us. But lost out. This has always been a great forum. I'm...

12 Volt Man

That's a beauty.

What do you figure the cost of materials was?

12 Volt Man

Don,
Everything will remain the same. You'll just have the option of reading the forum through and RSS reader. I didn't get it either till I watched this cheesy little video clip I found.

12 Volt Man

Yeah. Do it.

12 Volt Man

Litter.

What are some options? Saw dust? Cedar chips? Looking for cheap and easy to get.

12 Volt Man

Since this is their first introduction to birds, I would assume that you don't have a launcher. Grab a helper. You'll plant the bird with it's wings locked (takes a little learning, but the wings can be extended and the lower feathers crossed to lock them together). Then work the dog into the birds ...

Looks good. Nice work.

While I would like for the dog to remain completely still, no head movement etc... I have only successfully reached the point of standing solid.

12 Volt Man

Nice pic Larue.

12 Volt Man

Great pictures.

12 Volt Man

Congrats. Although I kind of wish anyone but Matt and Moon would have won. He is tough with that dog

He has become the one to beat in our region.

I can't believe I didn't qualify Cooper. I had my chances. Handler errors. I'll be there next year.

12 Volt Man

one more.

We couldn't make it out this week on the normal Wed. night. So Critter Control, Read and I headed out tonight.

That is a fine looking dog. Looks like some great country to train in.

12 Volt - No pictures this time?? Sheesh. I do actually take a picture of each tie, date it and store it. If they want it, I give copies to the dam's owner just for photo proof I did the breeding I was supposed to do. I am worse than a dang tourist at Disneyland. Nope I didn't take any doggy porno ...

12 Volt Man

What do you want from a dog? What do you hunt? Will it be an inside or outside dog?

12 Volt Man

I had a couple of hours to kill so I grabbed Spooner and gave Critter Control a call. We headed for the pond. http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/9125/untitled11zt2.jpg http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/6984/untitled8ak0.jpg The only thing crazier than a Pointer that swims, is a Setter that swims. htt...

12 Volt Man

Great pics. Thanks for the report. It is neat to see the fields that other regions are using.

12 Volt Man

Thanks for the suggestions. The deed is done.

And these should be some great pups. I hope she takes.

He bred one other bitch last year. It took him a few tries then too. We'll give it another try when I get home from work.

Memorial day trial is NOT at that location. We are not going to use that place again.

I have a female Pointer at my place to be bred to Cooper. He is having trouble getting tied up to her. She is a little taller than he is on the hind legs. I have put them together twice now with no luck. I even got up at 3am this morning to let them have a go before I left for work. An hour of tryin...

glad you came Rutt. It was good to meet you.

I co-Chaired my first NSTRA trial on Saturday. What a great time. The trial was successful but we had some interesting problems. First the cover in the fields we scheduled what nothing like we expected. Then there were ravens that kept flying into the fields and taking out the quail. I bet we lost 2...
